Description/Taste
The Juici apple was bred to be similar to its parent, Honeycrisp apple, one of the most popular apple varieties currently in the United States. Juici apple’s texture is very similar to Honeycrisp—dense and crunchy, even at room temperature. The skin of the Juici apple is mostly red, overlaid on a yellow background. The skin is also fairly thin. This variety is in fact juicy, but not overpoweringly so. The flavor of Juici apples is balanced between sweet and a tart finish, less sweet than its parent Honeycrisp.
Seasons/Availability
Juici apples are available in the late fall through winter.
